Not complaining

Ford will most likely close its Bordeaux plant. To be honest, it's good to see Ford closing a plant in Europe instead of another one here. I'm sorry for those who will lose their jobs, but Ford is an American company and it should focus on saving... — read more

Subprime 60 Day Late Worse than 2008-09

ANTI LABOR

See the article here (MTSANDARD): Ford layoffs reveal anti-labor future: http://mtstandard.com/news/opinion/letters/ford-layoffs-reveal-anti-labor-future/article_6dca64fe-37bc-54a4-b24b-7862c7a6381d.html

Not Hourly? Start Packing!

Start packing, as long as it's not hourly we're cut to the bone now, so in order for ford to keep up with their 10% yearly cuts they have to go after salaried personnel to keep the shareholders happy.
